Inside Rory McIlroy's Travelers Championship prize money as he bags HUGE six-figure sum after surging to sixth place
RORY McIlroy went home from the Travelers Championship €604,000 richer after surging up to sixth place on Sunday. The five-time major winner 4 McIlroy is finally regaining form since struggling with a post-Masters comedown Credit: Getty 4 Tommy Fleetwood snatched defeat from the jaws of victory Credit: AP 4 Which allowed Keegan Bradley to reel in his three-shot lead Credit: Getty 4 Shane Lowry finished well down the leaderboard Credit: Getty However, he wound up finishing just three shots behind winner Keegan Bradley who took advantage of McIlroy was NINE shots off the top of the leaderboard as he teed off on the opening hole. But in an encouraging display, he posted a five-under par round of 65 to leave himself in a tie for sixth with world number one Shane Lowry meanwhile, placed in a tie for 45th on a total score of one-under par across the four days. For his efforts he'll earn around €55,000. Read More On Irish Sport Fleetwood had gone into the day with a three-shot lead to himself but a bogey-ridden start and end to his round allowed home favourite Bradley to swoop in and take the title. The Englishman ended up missing out by a shot after bogeying the 18th to hand victory to the US Ryder Cup captain. Fleetwood had a six-foot putt to win but his shot appeared to hit a ball mark and drifted inches wide. He then agonisingly watched on as Bradley sank his putt from a similar distance to birdie, achieving a two-shot swing on the final hole to win the championship. Most read in Golf One fan reacted saying: "That's just unbelievably bad luck." Another added: "1.9M ball mark. Ouch." And a third wrote: "Really sad to see for the guy." Tommy Fleetwood's 18th hole putt 'hits ball mark' as Brit heartbreakingly denied £15m PGA Travellers Championship title The result means Fleetwood's wait for a PGA Tour win continues. He also missed out on the €2.7million winning prize pot. Fleetwood shared his disappointment after the final round, saying: "I'm gutted right now. "I've not been in that situation for a long time. It's probably the worst way to finish. "Leading by two with three to play. Leading by one going into the last and you don't even make it to a play-off. It's the worst way it could go."

Wish List: Super suitcases, cool kitchen gadgets, perfect picnic blankets
A scents of place Fragrance zoning is about curating areas of your home with scents that reflect the mood of the room. Think welcoming, fresh scents in the hallway, zesty tangs for the kitchen and calming notes in the bedroom. Ortigia's Fico d'India perfume diffuser blends fig, cactus juice, and wild flowers from Sicily and comes in a beautiful keepsake box. One whiff and I'm cruising down the Sicilian Riviera in a Maserati, clad head-to-toe in Dolce & Gabbana, a silk headscarf blowing in the Mediterranean breeze (Michele Morrone in the passenger seat is optional). Shop this diffuser, €55, at Pure Boutique, Douglas Court Shopping Centre in Cork. Keeping it cool We Irish have many unwritten laws pertaining to the weather. In winter, we hibernate; in summer, we stay out in our gardens past 10pm, without exception. We also have an intrinsic connection to our land — and inexplicably, to trolleys (don't tell me you don't have at least one brilliant story involving your younger self and a trolley). Keep your summer salads fresh for longer and your drinks cold with the Cooler Be Cool, €330, from Interiosity in Cork. Nobody likes flat 7UP with a side of limp lettuce, am I right? Available to order at Chic coasters Did you ever wonder why your elders were so particular about coasters? "They protect the wood," they said, when said wood was hidden under a tablecloth. Add a few years to my birth cert and suddenly, I'm beginning to understand the allure. Forget the "wine o'clock" novelty coasters and choose the gorgeous inlay chequered designs at Tooka, one of my favourite homeware and accessories brands. Having tea on these beauties? Raise your pinkie in pride. Shop at or Suited and booted Show me the person who has travelled abroad who hasn't had a suitcase disaster or two. From the rogue wheels that insist on knocking knees with the crankiest of humans to the case of the mistaken suitcase on the carousel, I've learned my lessons the hard way, and my days of poor-quality, fabric suitcases are over. Away suitcases consistently garner five-star reviews. Scan the QR code to set up the lock and take advantage of the built-in compression pad — some users say it allows for double the amount of clothes. The hard shell carry-on suitcase, about €258 from Away, does not compromise on form or function. It's available from or selected stockists. Birds of a feather Tell me you haven't beamed at the robin in the garden, convinced it's a sign from above. Or lost an hour looking at newly divorced birds (Google it)? Birdwatching is such a simple joy; it's impossible to feel glum looking at these bouncy, shiny, happy cheeky chappies. Saille Baskets' willow bird feeder, €48, almost resembles a nest. Made from wicker, its teardrop shape is ideal for feeding smaller birds. Fill it with nuts, seeds and fat balls and watch the little cuties peck, perch and peep to their hearts' content. These beautifully woven bird feeders are all unique and one-of-a-kind and are available at the Irish Design Shop. A chop off the old block My nail tech once told me "nails are jewels, not tools". If you spend a significant amount on your gel refills every month, you don't want to ruin them by something as simple as chopping a carrot. The KitchenAid Classic Mini Chopper, €111.99, does the work for you. Chopping is only half the fun — this mini-appliance also purees vegetables so you can hide them from your fussy toddler because the old adage of seeing in the dark ain't working anymore. How did our parents get away with that one? Shop at Nisbets in Blarney or on Biophilic design Some of us were blessed with gardens, and some of us (he who shall not be named) opted for a patch of concrete. Low-maintenance? Sure. Low mood? You bet. You don't need me to list off all the studies that prove the benefits of having indoor flowers, you only have to look to see them breathe life into your living space. Hang a few of these ATYM globe flowerpots, from €49, to create a gallery-style wall without taking up too much space. Check out or available stockists. Technicolour dream blanket Not all picnic blankets are created equal, and I'm inclined to agree with my mother that those "skimpy auld yokes" do you no good. The Pavilion plaid block-multicolour blanket from Hubsch, €118, is thick enough to also use as a bedspread. It's made from Oeko-Tex® Standard 100® cotton, meaning it's cosy enough to plant your behind down and read for the day without budging. Big enough to share space with the family and bright enough to pick you out in a crowd, we love this blanket for so many reasons. Pack some Wexford strawberries, cocktail sausages and brie for the grown-ups and be nice to the seagulls — sure, they can't help being a bit boisterous. It's available at

Ireland weather bombshell as sudden switch forecast by Met Eireann for 2 areas
Ireland has been enjoying a brief taste of summer with mini-heatwave conditions taking hold in recent days. Temperatures soared to a sizzling 29.6C on Friday, beating those recorded in some European holiday hotspots. This warmth was short-lived however, as on Sunday, clouds rolled back in and temperatures dipped noticeably, reminding the country that Irish weather rarely stays settled for long. Now, Met Eireann has issued a bombshell forecast warning of a sudden and dramatic weather shift for two areas as the final week of June gets underway. This sharp change will see a stark divide across the country. While parts of the south and east can still expect to hold onto some of the recent warmth and dry spells, the west and north are bracing for a dramatic drop in temperatures alongside increased rain and drizzle. The national forecaster said: "It will continue changeable and mixed for the rest of the week, with some rain at times, but drier sunnier interludes too. It'll be relatively mild and it'll be humid at times, with the warmest conditions in the south and east. Breezy at times too." Over the coming days, cloud is forecast to thicken from the west, bringing rain, drizzle, mist, fog and even the chance of thunder. Temperatures will fall sharply in western and northern areas, while the south and east remain milder with some sunny spells developing. Giving a day-by-day breakdown of what to expect, Met Eireann said: "Showers will continue to die away Monday morning and it'll be mainly dry then for a good part of the day with variable cloud and some sunny spells developing. Cloud will increase from the west later, with outbreaks of rain and drizzle moving into the west and southwest by evening time, becoming a little more widespread by nightfall, accompanied by some hill and coastal mist and fog. Highest temperatures of 16C to 22C, coolest in the northwest and warmest in the south, in mainly moderate west to southwest breezes, fresh at times in coastal parts of the north and west. "Tuesday morning will be mostly cloudy but with just a little light patchy rain and drizzle here and there. It'll become mainly dry across Ulster and Connacht by the afternoon with any patchy light rain and drizzle becoming mostly confined to south Munster and south Leinster later, where there'll be some further hill and coastal mist and fog too. Some bright or sunny spells will develop at times. Highest temperatures of 15C in the northwest to 22C in the south in mostly moderate southwest to west winds, fresh for a time in western coastal parts, decreasing light to moderate later. "Wednesday will bring a good lot of dry weather for the morning and afternoon, with just a few scattered showers. While there'll be a good lot of cloud, there'll be some bright or sunny spells. A spell of rain will spread from the west during the evening, becoming heavy at times with the chance of thunder. There'll be some hill and coastal mist and fog too especially further south. Highest temperatures of 17C to 22C with southerly winds increasing mostly moderate, becoming fresh later along the west coast. "Thursday will be a breezy day with some spells of sunshine in the morning and just a few showers. It'll become cloudier through the afternoon, with more in the way of showers around, especially in the west and north, while a spell of more persistent rain is likely to spread eastwards later on. Highest temperatures of between 15C and 19C in fresh and gusty southwesterly winds, strong at times in western and southern coastal parts. "Friday will be another breezy day with a good deal of cloud and further outbreaks of rain and drizzle, along with some hill and coastal mist and fog. The rain will possibly be heavy at times in the west and north. It'll be drier further to the east and south, where there'll be some bright or sunny spells. Mild or warm and humid with highest temperatures of 17C to 23C , warmest in the east. "Our weather will remain changeable next weekend, with some rain at times, but some decent drier sunnier interludes likely too. Continuing relatively mild."
